5 Reasons why Solskjaer will take Manchester United back to the Glory Days

#2 He has already created a backbone for his team

Solskjaer has some impressive talents to build a team around

Sir Alex Ferguson’s great teams were built on a solid backbone of youth and experience. Over the years, the legendary Scot made the right reinforcements to his teams to keep United in the game. He replenished the ageing and departing players with young blood or the perfect replacements. But the basis of his great teams was always a solid set of players who had the qualities to take the team forward.

As of now, Solskjaer already has a stellar backbone at his disposal to build a team around. The Norwegian has one of the best goalkeepers in the world in David De Gea, whose contract will most definitely be renewed. Luke Shaw also looks like a world-class talent and Lindelof has developed with leaps and bounds.

Paul Pogba should get even better under a manager who finally understands and trusts him. And the phenomenal duo of Martial and Rashford are already reminding us of some legendary strike partnerships of old.

The summer will be interesting, and with some extremely talented youth players under his wings as well, Solskjaer seems to have the recipe for success ready. And it is a reason why the Norwegian could take United back to the glory days.
